Lone Star has a few books in his house that are worth quite a bit. An eldritch horror in the guise of a book he doesn't remember buying, for starters.

Sounds like other people have more interesting things. I'll find some way for Chrysamere to die later.
All Fantasia's got is a dagger but it is her only weapon...
Sentient weapons, valuable weapons, and valuable books. That sounds like a good array of things to start with.
Though he won't be 'killing' the sentient weapons, just stealing them.
^There's of course all sorts of valuable weaponry aboard The Cirrus, ;)

Note: If by chance somepony ventures into the Blighted Weald (Yes, I've decided to call the forest to the north that) there is indeed a humongous mess of a bloodied corpse of a dragon xD
Not to mention just plain valuable machinery. May not be the easiest to steal, but technology can fetch a high price.
Benson, is Gear even going to be conscious when Sandy gets back? :smalltongue:
@HalfTangible
Esmeralda is waiting for Lone Star's response before she decides whether to drink the thing or not. Just sayin'.
(Not that it won't happen. The potential for Ranma 1/2 shenanigans is too good to pass up. Also MCerberus had the better idea, cold for Icy, hot for Esmeralda.)
What time of day is it now? It feels like it should be early to mid evening.
And here is my new character, specially made for the thief plot! Now that he's properly introduced himself to somepony, I can feel all right posting this. The name and inspiration for the character is taken from an old western slapstick called The Villain (though this wasn't the name of the villain, just so you know). He'll be leaving once the thief plot is over, one way or another.
Name: Handsome Stranger
Race: Flutter Pony
Appearance: Handsome Stranger certainly lives up to his name. He is, in fact, incredibly handsome. He has a gorgeous face, toned body, dashing smile and a gentlecoltly-yet-roguish demeanor that the fillies swoon over. His coat is pearl white, and his mane sky blue, which matches the patterns on his butterfly wings. He's a bit shorter than average for a stallion, but that actually means he's taller than average for a male flutter pony. Tends to wear a wide-brimmed hat (cowboy hat, but I have no pony equivalent name to use as they don't herd cattle).
Age: Mid-20s
Skills: Aside from making fillies swoon over him, Handsome Stranger is a very helpful stallion and not a bad gunslinger with his specially modified seven-shot six-shooters. He's a decent fighter, and quite strong for his size, but he's no match for a truly seasoned combatant.
Like all flutter ponies, Handsome Stranger has some magical abilities, but little capacity to learn spells through study. Flutter ponies instead 'develop' their spells somewhat randomly and spontaneously throughout their life, though they often have a common theme. Handsome Stranger bears the unfortunate luck to have his entire spell set based around the disruption of magical, psychic, and otherwise supernatural abilities of other spell-users. Mind readers experience mental static when he's around and active spells start to unravel in his general vicinity. Fortunately, runes seem to be an exception to this, but that may just mean he has to concentrate to counter them.
He's an OK flier, but his counter-magic powers interfere with the kind of weather manipulation skilled flying requires. He does have a knack for directions, and rarely gets lost.
Biography: Handsome Stranger is a wanderer. As he likes to tell it, his mother had an odd sense of humor, supposedly naming him after his father, who he has never met. He has suffered from the superstition of other ponies who assume his innate counter-magic abilities mean he must be some kind of subversive or bad pony. On the upside, life on the road agrees with him very well and he essentially lives his life out of the duffel bag he travels with.
Personality: Dashing, kind, helpful, and self-sacrificing to a fault. Handsome Stranger is almost too good to be true. Though fillies who have tried to seduce him find his nobility to be immensely frustrating.
Relationships: None.
Cutie Mark: An open sack.
Crisis, still waiting on a response from Handsome Stranger.
Sorry, I missed it. I'll post now.
Hey Orzel, is Hover still at the bar? I need something to do in this thread while I wait for a reply from Soft.
Icy clearly needs to touch a Dewitchery Diamond. I'm sure she could deal with the murderous wizard that comes to hunt her down easily.
The one pony in town that seems to hold alcohol well... I think GRILLS might be in trouble this time.
Deadtime for 3 hours
Deadtiming for abit.
Deadtiming for 5-6 hours.
Idea for wacky hijinks:
Staccata and Tyrol end up at the same restaurant in the near future as Dreamrunner/Lemongrass.
Staccata takes room 15 at the hotel (Dreamrunner's in 14 if I remember)
I have a new character I've been dying to introduce...
Name: Juniper Star
Title: none
Race: Deer
Appearance: a normal brown doe
Age: 19
Skills: Gardening, public speaking, running
Biography: Juniper, or June, was born and raised in the Blighted Weald(isn’t that we’re calling that forest?) with 3 brothers and her parents. They passed down the art of gardening to their only daughter who was the only one eager to learn. Her parents taught her to avoid pony civilization but June was always curious. She had a fairly average life and was not very affected by the Celestia Luna thing.
Personality: Brave, friendly, very honest.
Relationships: A big black raven that she raised in the forest and somehow communicates with is always found with her and is her only friend.
Cutie Mark: do deer have cutie marks? If so it would be a juniper (obviously)
